Chapter 146 Shadow Wolf

"Okay Everyone, Group up. I have something to tell you all," Ray's voice resounded through the whole place as he used his mana to increase the volume and intensity of his voice.

"At least speak lightly. It hurts my ears you freak," Aliya- who stood right besides him- shouted loudly while holding her ears in pain.

Ray said nothing as he stood silently, waiting for everyone to regroup.

"Hmph… Meanie," Aliya harrumphed as she muttered.

"I am here," Elina announced as she approached Ray and Aliya. Along with her was Kid as he also waved his hands at both of them.

Seeing them, Ray nodded and asked, "By the way, do you know where the others are?"

'ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N(ov)elBin',

"They were training in the boss room on this floor," Elina answered.

"All of them?" Ray asked, raising an eyebrow; he added, "Don't tell me that Sirius started training right after he got better,"

'Visit (No ve (l)B i n) to read, pls!',

"Uhh… Yes, he has been training ever since," Elina smiled awkwardly as she spoke.

"Ugh… This person! I will go and get him to stop training for once," Ray muttered in annoyance and disappeared, leaving behind blackish cracks within the space where he stood.

Appearing within the boss room, Ray saw Sirius; standing in the middle while everyone else circled around him.

"Interesting… I guess I will see it play out for a bit before intervening," Ray muttered, scratching his chin; he continued to spectate the whole training session from the sidelines.

"Zhingg…Zhingg…Zhingg,"

The wind was cut as Aella fired a couple of arrows. The arrows headed towards Sirius as they gave him no chance to escape.

Right after Aella, Kid got to work as he used his ice magic to freeze the ground. Doing so, Kid's mobility increased by a lot but for Sirius, his mobility decreased as he could barely find his grip on the frozen ground.

On the other hand, Tim stood in front of them as he used his shield to cover them.

"That's a nice strategy, not to mention their placements. I wonder who did this," Ray thought to himself, a smile on his face as he was happy that his teammates had finally started to find their place in the team and are able to use their abilities freely, without any hesitation.

Meanwhile,

Sirius looked at the arrows heading his way. Opening his mouth, he transformed into his wolf form as he howled loudly.

"Awooooooooooo,"

The howl sent reverberations through the surroundings as a small shockwave spread through. The shockwave caused the arrows to deviate from their path while also weakening the ice that froze the ground.

"Noah! Your turn," Emma shouted loudly as she ordered Noah. Nodding, Noah spread his hands as Spirit Energy gathered around his arms.

'',

Using the Spirit Energy and infusing it into his needles, he commanded the needles as the needles made their way towards Sirius.

While the needles were heading towards Sirius, they kept rearranging themselves until they formed a certain pattern.

The pattern resembled an octagonal structure as it formed a strange formation.

The needles reached Sirius as they floated around him. The needles glowed as an octagon formed around Sirius.

Just as the octagon was formed,

"Awoooooo"

Sirius howled in pain as he held his head in pain.

"Everyone, attack. He won't be like this for long," Emma shouted loudly as she ordered everyone to attack.

Listening to her orders, all of them nodded as they raised their weapons and attacked Sirius.

Kid used his ice magic to create two big icicles as he aimed them at Sirius while Noah used another batch of Spirit Needles and infused them with Spirit Energy as he sent them to attack Sirius.

Aella also readied herself as she took out a special arrow and aimed it at Sirius. The arrow had a crooked tip and small electrical sparks crackles around the tip.

This arrow was a special arrow that could paralyze the enemy for a certain time period and also induced a great amount of pain throughout paralysis.

As for Emma, she used her Aura ability to confuse Sirius's senses, even more, causing Sirius to be disoriented and unable to think clearly.

"hmmm… Interesting," Ray muttered as he thought, "The idea is nice. She used the fact that werewolves have sharper senses and used this to her advantage by making Noah send out spirit attacks targeted at her senses. The Spirit Formation released high-frequency waves that distorted Sirius's senses,"

"Awooooo," A high-pitched howl reverberated in the surroundings.

Pulling Ray out of his thoughts, Ray turned and looked at the battle ongoing in front of him.

He saw Sirius, standing on his fours, glaring at everyone as his body was covered by a black outline.

Slowly, the black outline extended to Sirius's shadow and connected with it.

Sirius lifted his hands as a black shadow emerged from the ground. The shadow was actually Sirius's as it had detached from Sirius and had taken corporeal form.

Pointing forward, Sirius ordered the shadow as both wolves disappeared.

After that, what happened was nothing but purely brutal as all the opponent team members were left with black and blue by Sirius and his shadow.

"Shadow Wolf," Aurora muttered in Ray's mind while Ray looked in awe as Sirius beat his team members mercilessly.

"Ray, stop him now, or else there would be a few members missing by the time he regains his sanity," Aurora advised Ray.

"Okay," Ray said as he blinked and appeared in front of Sirius.

Right now, Sirius was in the process of punching Noah. As he punched him mercilessly, his hand suddenly shook as it got stuck in one place.

Looking back, Sirius saw Ray standing behind him and holding his hand.

"Tsk… tsk… Good kids don't fight to bully others," Ray clicked his tongue and said, teasing Sirius; he diverted his attention from Noah to himself.

"Awoo" Sirius howled loudly as he let Noah go and turned around.

"Go Noah, get out of here and take the others with yourself. I will stop Sirius in the meantime," Ray said.

While Ray was speaking to Noah, Sirius came forward and punched him in the stomach, and sent him flying.

Seeing Ray fly in the air, Noah got even more scared and ran away.

Sirius ignored Ray and turned back to face Noah. However, Noah was nowhere to be found. Therefore, in anger; Sirius turned back again as he started targeting Ray.

"Blerghh… Good, Now let's have a real fight then," spitting a mouthful of blood, Ray wiped his face with his sleeve as he spoke.

"Awoooo," Sirius howled angrily as he started running towards Ray. Moreover, the howl also acted as a signal to his shadow as midway through his attack, the shadow also joined Sirius.

'',

Seeing both, the wolf and his shadow coming for him; Ray smiled and crackled his fingers.

The mana within the surroundings trembled as an unimaginable pressure descended. Behind Ray, the Phantom of a dragon appeared as the space around him cracked.

[Void Gauntlets]

Equipping the Void Gauntlets, Ray clenched his fists and lifted his hands as he took a boxing stance.

Doing so, he taunted Sirius to come and attack him. With his sanity in shambles, Sirius didn't even bother with the pressure in the surroundings or the bloodline oppression he felt.

Instead, the hot-headed wolf started running towards Ray at an even faster rate.

Seeing this, Ray grinned in excitement as he also used his other abilities,

[Strength Enhancement]

[Speed Enhancement]

Now, with both his speed and strength increased, Ray kicked the ground as he approached Sirius.

Intercepting him midway, Ray charged his fist as he punched forward.

Seeing Ray punch, Sirius did the same as he also punched forward while his shadow swiped its claw at Ray.

Ray and Sirius's punches collided with each other and a deadly shockwave was produced. Along with that with Ray's punch having Void Elemental properties; it affected the surroundings as tears started to appear in the surrounding space with the Void Element altering the laws of the dungeon.

"Ray hold back. If you use this attack anymore, the Boss on the tenth floor would be alerted. Hence, making it harder for you. Even now, I can feel the space being peered on with someone trying to observe you," Aurora cautioned as she asked Ray to hold back with his use of the Void Element.

Listening to Aurora, Ray pulled back his punch and voluntarily stayed at a disadvantage.

In the meantime, the shadow's strike reached Ray. As Ray tried to dodge the attack, it slightly grazed his arm.

Retreating a few steps, Ray looked at Sirius as he spoke,

"Guess I will have to deal with you with the classical method. Therefore, allow me to teach some sense in you in the old-fashioned way," Ray said as he unequipped the Void Gauntlets and used the mana to cover both of his hands with fee and lightning.

Doing so, he used the fire element to cover his body in the fire elemental aura and started attacking as he targeted the shadow wolf.
